Henry's mother has enough money to live more than comfortably. But the only comfort she can concentrate on is her bizarre obsession. She can't help but constantly seek out the donation bins on the darker side of the city. The only problem is, she isn't putting clothing into them, she's taking it out. Until one frigid night when she accidentally unveils her selfish secret to everyone. After the revelation, the layer of shame left lathered on Henry becomes backbreaking. As Halloween approaches, macabre ideas manifesting in Henry's head spark a series of events that will lead to sins far worse than stealing.

Alone, save for the salivating teeth of vengeance.
